So far, at least six people have fallen ill in two states: four in Tennessee and two in Illinois. Four of the six people required hospitalization for their condition (two in Tennessee and both cases in Illinois).
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is reportedly planning a nationwide alert to notify clinicians of the potentially counterfeit Botox and advise them to be on the lookout for botulism-like illnesses. The agency did not immediately respond to Ars’ request for information.
And what is Botox used for? And how much are Botox injections?
Sorry but this IS a rich fuck problem.
If you’re dumb enough to get Botox injections you deserve full blown botulism
How much are they? A couple hundred dollars. Not a rich fuck problem. Lemme ask you, how many rich people have been in the news dead from cosmetic procedures? How about many people of limited income?
Funny how the news stories are about regular people going to bootleg clinics and not rich people going to proper doctors and paying for good cosmetic treatments.
